I don't like getting stuck in a rut, and right now I feel stuck in a rut. Why? Well, because this blog is all crafty stuff. That's the point of my goal after all . . . craft all my Christmas gifts. I want to stay pretty focused on that, but I feel like every once in a while I need a crafting reprieve. And since this is my blog, I guess I get to do whatever I want. (There are so few place in life I get to say that . . . none actually . . . except this blog.)

A few weeks ago I wrote up a little recipe for the 30 Day Food Challenge over at A Vision to Remember. I have a few more recipes coming up over there in the next few weeks. I had so much fun sharing recipes food crafts; rather than crafty crafts that I'm going to do a little post on Fridays called Feed Me Friday. (Don't you love how so many blog features use alliteration. I tried not to, but I just couldn't help myself.) I'm going to post a new recipe every Friday until I get sick of doing it. Then I'll stop. I'm hoping to stick with it long enough to get into some Christmas recipes. I LOVE Christmas recipes!

Today's first Feed Me Friday is featuring my first recipe in the 30 Day Food Challenge.

This recipe is one of the those projects that I just figured out while messing around in the kitchen. It's a berry pie/fruit crisp hybrid. It's so easy and yummy! Two of my favorite things!

Well, to be honest, I hate pies. BUT my husband loves them and this looks like one he would really enjoy. I have NEVER made him a pie. Sad. True. I think it's time I changed that. This should be a good recipe to do that with. Thanks for the inspiration!

Your pie looks terrific and I have just the berries to try it with. I have signed on as a Follower so I will be able to keep up with what you are working on. When you have time stop by and say "Hi", take care.

blogging manners

I try to teach my kids good manners. I'm not sure how successful I've been though. But when I hear them say "please" or "thank you", I know my persistence is paying off. I try to use good manners on my blog too . . . giving credit where credit is due by linking back to projects or ideas from other crafty bloggers. I ask you to do the same. If, in some rare instance, you are inspired enough to blog about something I tried or use an idea you find here, please link back to me (if it's my idea) or the original blogger. Feel free to use my original ideas and tutorials for personal use only (gifts or self) not for profit!
